Revelation

If a matter of how

falls upon your rocky life,

sigh

Your sleep is arrested.

Your body swirls in tight circles across

a floodplain once parched.

Even so, take this day in a

tight grip and repeat after me:

ripples, wild, lovely mine

It's Thankful Thursday, on Friday. Let’s wrap up the week on a high note.

Joy expands and contracts in direct relation to our sense of gratitude. What are you thankful for today? A person, a place, a thing? A story, a song, a poem?

What makes your heart expand?
